@GTV reviews the Cosmic Fantasy 1-2 Switch collection by Edia, provides examples of the poor English editing/localization work. It's much worse for CF1. Rated "D" for disappointment, finding that TurboGrafx CF2 is better & while CF1's the real draw, Edia screwed it up...

Quote from: RoyVegas on 05/07/2010, 01:04 PMI took a few passes at Aero Blasters last night but didn't get any farther than level 5. 
It's a tough one, been playing myself the last week again. Going to have to take a break though. The last level is really starting to piss me off, I get there with 2-3 continues and still have yet to reach the final boss. It seems like a game that's real fun to play for a few days then you have to take some time off or Controllers get broken. Someday I'll beat that Mother...

I stayed up pretty late last night playing Bonk's Revenge. Bonk's Adventure is a good game, but the sequel really takes it to the next level.

It's a fun little shooter. The bosses are some of the coolest in any game. One boss is actually a main character from another game.

OK, Finally beat Aero Blasters yesterday, was on my last life too. Finally I can put that one away. Now I think it's time to bang my head against a wall with some Super Star Soldier. Never made it past level 6 Boss on that one.

It did take ALOT of plays before I finally beat it. Couple things that helped that I learned are the closer you get to enemies the faster they fall. This is very helpful on level 2,3,5,6 Bosses and a few other spots in levels where bigger enemies come out. Also, that jerk off on stage 5 with the red circles around him where he keeps firing bullets at you the best way I found is to not even shoot, just hold down the blaster button and erase those bullets as many times as possible. That guy use to beat me like 4 times every run till I started doing that. Either way it's one tough shooter.

The blaster weapon is so important in this game. Not only does it clear out bullets, but it also slows you down, which is great for tight spots (the bullet dude and the last stage).

I beat Ys Book 2 today. I'd had a game saved for years near the end of the game but quit playing it. It took me a while to figure out what I was doing. Now I need to find another game to work on.

I am currently playing NINJA SPIRIT.
This "max-level forum psycho" (:lol:) destroyed TWO PC Engine groups in rage: one by Aaron Lambert on Facebook "Because Chris 'Shadowland' Runyon!," then the other by Aaron Nanto "Because Le NightWolve!" Him and PCE Aarons don't have a good track record together... Both times he blamed the Aarons in a "Look-what-you-made-us-do?!" manner, never himself nor his deranged, destructive, toxic turbo troll gang!

I've had "Soldier Blade" in my Turbo this week playing here and there. Last weekend it was Ninja Spirit. I might just switch back to that shortly.

No need to triple post.  Your keyboard has an 'Enter' key for a reason; use it.



In Ceti's honor, I was pwned repeatedly in Dragon Spirit.  After which, in an effort to keep my sanity and to prevent the untimely demise of a controller, I played about three-fourths the way through Neutopia.

Received a copy of Ninja Gaiden for the PCE. Graphics are amazing, especially when I have been used to playing the NES version my whole life. Music is not as good, though. And, thank the pc engine gods they included a code to translate all the text into English. In Chris Bucci's review he commented that the sound effects aren't as good as the NES version, but I kinda like 'em. :wink:

They are exactly the same with the exception of better graphics during the cinemas. Here is a link to Chris Bucci's review:

Genji Tsushin Agadama was waitin' on me in my mailbox this morning :dance: Got to play it for just a bit after work. It's a really great game similar to Monster Lair. Graphics are nice and colorful. Not much parallax though, but that isn't too big of a deal.

Sweet! I am planning on buying Parodius Da! this week sometime. I was surprised how affordable it is for such a great game. In fact, all the Parodius releases are inexpensive. As soon as I get a Saturn I will be buying Sexy Parodius. I read that it's the best of the series.

As for Spriggan, good luck with the final boss. I had to use a cheat code to beat him. But, I didn't cheat until I got to him. Played the game honestly until then.
